Title Profile & Character Information

The World We Found

AnnotationFour women, all friends during their heady 1970s university days, have drifted apart but reunite because one of them is ill. Standard story with a telling difference: these women are from Mumbai, and three are traveling from India to America to see their dying friend. Another difference: Umrigar, author of critically acclaimed books like The Space Between Us, writes with exceptional clarity and depth of understanding. I happily recommend-and not just for lovers of India-centric writing.
